Hatfield outlined the issues on which he intends to wage his campaign for reelection next year in a speech before the kick-off meeting of the Multnomah County chapter of the Oregon Republican Club Wednesday.

Two Killings Confessed PHOENIX IUPH A former mental patient arrested for the kidnap-rape of a young housewife Wednesday confessed to two slay tops, police reported today. The housewife, Mrs. Frances Neel, was in serious condition. Her body was slashed and muti lated and the word "slayer" was carved into her thigh. Sheriff's Capt. Ralph Edmund son said Earl Davis Wagner, 23. admitted the attack, and confessed to the two unsolved murders. One slaving, the hanging of a 5-year-old boy 11 years ago had been listed as accidental. The other, police said, was the rape-slaying last month of Mrs. Mary Essa Boyer, 83, whose body was found near her home. Edmundson said the chain of events leading to the service sta tion attendant's arrest began Wednesday when Wagner forced a pickup truck carrying Mrs. Neel, her brother and two other men to the side of a country road with his car. Wagner, who officers sain was a former mental patient and l)ad served a California prison sentence for armed robbery, then robbed the three men and took Mrs. Neel at gunpoint in his car. according to Edmundson. Officers said Wagner confessed he then forced Mrs. Neel to un dress and raped her. Before he abandoned the woman Wagner also tried to cut her throat, stabbed her several times, and mutilated her leg, Edmund son said. Mrs. Neel told officers she col lapsed and played dead. After her attacker left, she crawled to nearby house for help and was taken to a hospital. should look for things the state can do better, but some things can be done better by the fed eral government." Hatfield said He indicated that he will blame the Democratic-controlled legisla ture for the parts of his 1961 legislative program that were not enacted, and claim credit for the GOP for the parts of the program that went through. As an example, Hatfield told the group the legislature had failed! to pass laws he asked for regard ing traffic safety, including fixed speed limits, and arrest fori probable cause after an accident. "I believe that this is one of the most important and critical of all our social needs," said Hatfield. "It should be carried to the people." jjliunday.

(API-Range- land acreage inevitably will shrink, but modern improvements should provide plenty of forage for stock growers, Karl S. Land strom. director of the Bureau of Land Management, said today. And there is plenty of room for improvement in Oregon, he said in a speech prepared for delivery at a meeting of stockmen, sports men and conservation groups. Sen. Wayne L. Morse. D-Orc., served as chairman of the meet ing. Rep. Al Ullman, D-Ore., also was there. "Of the 13 million acres of federal range in Oregon, only 16 per cent is reported in good con dition, 50 per cent in fair con dition and 34 per cent in poor or bad condition. Ot this same acreage 25 per cent was reported as improving, 48 per cent as static and 27 per cent as declin ing. This situation is not satis factory.. We must now change this trend." Landstrom said. He told of efforts already started. "In Eastern Oregon 148.300 pub lic land acres have been artifi cially seeded and 4o,50O acres' have received brush control treat ment. There are many examples where crested uheatgrass seed- ings nave increased the grazing capacity 20 times or more. Brush! control treatment has often in creased the grazing capacity j three times. 'It is estimated that 2'i million acres of public lands in Eastern Oregon can be successfully artifi cially seeded and 5 million acres require brush control treatment," he said. "Even though the acreage de voted primarily to grazing will shrink, to some extent I lie total. Forage can be considerably in creased above the present level. The really bright outlook is that we know how to increase both the quality and the quantity of forage on the national land reserve. If given the financial means to accomplish the job, with your support we can carry it out," he said. rebate 10 per cent of this to OPS; for administration. Juras said the welfare staff would recommend to the commis sion, in accordance with discus sions in the commission medical subcommittee, that the commis sion go along with fees at 90 per cent of the printed schedule. He said the 10 per cent saved would be used to increase medi care benefits. If the society approved the counter proposal. Juras said, this would be a fine indication of the medical society's positive interest posal was that it keep the 10 per cent to meet any administrative costs in addition to the 9 per cent set aside in the law for adminis tration and also to increase med ical care benefits. The 9 per cent provided in the law for administration was des cribed as inadequate to do the job by Dr. Parrott. He sajd the society's executive board had made the offer to have OPS run the claims portion in good faith. He said it felt OPS had the machinery and experience io handle mis type of account as well as the supervisory committee and disciplinary committee. "This is our baby". Dr. Parrott said of the federal medicare law. "We want it to work. It falls within our philosophy and we don't want to sec the program fail."
